Two members of the team attached a connection adapter to the new component - the harmonic, a task that was postponed from last week because the Discovery team devoted its last mission to repairing the solar collector
Space Station 16 Crew Commander Peggy Wilson and Cosmonaut Yuri Melanchenko completed their first space mission Friday morning. The mission lasted six hours and 55 minutes.
The two spent Friday morning disconnecting and storing cables, and took control of the Harmoni's docking mechanism. On Monday, Docking Adapter #2 (PMA-2) will be moved from Destiny Labs and installed on the Harmony docking mechanism. The spacewalkers removed a signal processor base station for its restoration, as well as a remote power controller that is to be replaced with a new one. They then transferred tools in preparation for the next spacewalks.
This Wednesday, the newly installed Harmonic docking adapter will be moved to the edge of the American Destiny laboratory. Harmony was temporarily attached to the Unity component during the STS-120 mission of the Space Shuttle Discovery.

It seems to me that there is a law against smoking at the station
I'm not sure, but I think the flame will be towards the air filter closest to that place.
If there is no air movement at all, there is a situation for the ball...
The truth is, I have no idea
If I light a match in zero gravity..
What will the flame look like? Like a ball maybe?
where the wind blows
